Why not

No more chains

Seriously, chains have been used as the primary drivetrain for bicycles forever. When will bicycle drivetrain technology progress? Here's a start, it's Trek's all new District single speed road/commuter bike which incorporates a belt drive instead of the typical greasy chain. While there have been some smaller companies who have done this in the past this is the first true production bike to feature a belt drive. Can you say quiet?!?!

Progress

Just want to say thank you to the customers I have had so far and I look forward to working with many more in the future. I will start to post more regularly with projects and interesting stuff to keep everyone entertained!

Just to remind everyone, wheel truing is not all that is offered, just send an email with any special request or project and I'll let you know if I can get it done.

Contact us

Send us an email:

Probikewheels@Gmail.com

We're friendly.

We don't bite.

Let us know what type of wheel you have and we'll arrange a time for dropoff. Often wheels can be serviced while you wait depending on amount of wheels and how badly out of true they may be. We are located in Beautiful, Sunny Fountain Valley, CA.

Price List

Basic prices for most wheel truing services:

Most wheel types including:

BMX
Mountain
Road
Track
Cruiser

$12 per wheel
or
$20 per set

What does this mean?

This means that for most bikes with minor to moderate issues, (A taco'd rim, a rim with 17 flat spots or one that resembles a tortilla probably can't be helped. Not for $12 at least...) $12 will take care of it and while you're at it get the pair done and save a few bucks!

Professional Tools

Years of experience and the skills to get the job done doesn't mean anything without the proper tools. Here's a taste of what we've got...

Park TS-2 Professional Wheel Truing Stand. Best in the industry.
